The reproduction idea crossed my mind, but find it difficult to agree. The estate was a former player that had passed away. Several balls were in the bag, tucked away in the garage. A team signed Mud Hens ball from 1934, and a few local league (Toledo Ohio) as well. Additionally, the other autos on the ball are Tiger principle owner Francis J Navin, actor Joe E Brown (played on a few baseball movies in the 30s, including Alibi Ike),Jack Calvey.

They wouldn't appear to have any logical tie together for a reproduction to be made. The whole thing is quite the mystery. The fading on some but not others could be 100 various reasons. Idk how the ball was stored/found/kept so it's tough to say. I'll dig further.

After looking at some of the other pics, I'm afraid this might be a reproduction. Better get some more opinions.

I'm no expert on Mountain Landis, but his graph looks pretty good on this ball, although with it being so bold, I wonder a bit. If authentic, I think it's safe to say it's worth easily over $1000. I'm not sure what the market is for signed baseballs with his sig. I used to own a Ruth/Gehrig/Landis signed ball. The signatures were faded but very legible. Landis' autograph on paper isn't cheap, so on a ball even more. I would say it's worth the $100 gamble, because you may have a ball worth a…
